Synopsis (Goodreads):

For decades, Marge has been spying on her neighbors Doris and Bob, reporting every sordid thing she sees to her husband, Harold. Flamboyant Doris and boring Bob are an odd couple, but as Marge watches their comings and goings, she starts to wonder if there’s more than meets the eye. Is Doris’s latest hobby—flamenco dancing, of all things—an attempt to spice things up, or is there something more sinister going on in the house across the street? Soon enough, Marge learns that digging into her suspicions means digging herself into a very deep hole.

Thoughts on The Nosy Neighbor: Oh, I liked this one. Marge starts to suspect some very unpleasant things about her neighbor, but all is not as it seems. In fact...no, wait. I'm getting ahead of myself.

Marge is the quintessential old lady watching her neighbors from her window. Doris and Bob are the objects of most of her nosiness. You know, by proximity. When Doris asks Marge to water her plants while she's away, Marge makes a startling discovery.

And things go downhill from there.

I liked the twist on this one overall. Marge's husband's issues were another Yikes moment I kind of didn't see coming. What can I say except I liked it!
